Kababjis reinvented Quinoa Tabbouleh hits the spot
Kababji, the authentic Lebanese chain with restaurants at Dubai Marina Promenade and Al Ghurair Centre, has scored a hit with its reinvented Quinoa tabbouleh, with the burghul replaced by the super healthy, quinoa pseudo-grain.
Its quickly gone to the top of our order list, said Kababji executive chef George Razzouk. Tabbouleh has always been a healthy dish but this version really suits those who are gluten intolerant. We have, though, stuck to the original recipe with the flavorful herbs, fresh parsley and mint, tomatoes, spring onion, lemon and olive oil. So its authentic with a slight, up-to-date twist.
Quinoa has reached super food status in the last few years, being rich in protein and having twice the fiber and essential minerals of other grains and being high in riboflavin, manganese and iron. Combine this with the fact that the other tabbouleh ingredients are virtually fat-free and youve got all the ingredients for a super hit with health foodies. Quinoa tabbouleh from Kababji is where traditional and authentic meets the 21st century.
